Chaos' Heir

Where are you reading Lord of the truth?

The s*x scenes aren’t graphically described, but once the MC and FML (at least until the end of the Nitis arc) have their first time, they end up having s*x every other chapter. Before that, it was just awkward touching and cringeworthy conversations... The novel was actually bearable until the sm*t-heavy Nitis arc began there had been no major development, just constant s*x, mental breakdowns during intimacy, and all sorts of unnecessary drama... That said, this is just my experience up to chapter 170, I haven't read beyond that, so I can't comment on the later story developments. Someone in my replies mentioned that if you ignore the romance, it’s a good novel, so if you’re willing to take that chance, you can give it a shot...

Hmm... I'll just Re-read Conquerors Path' for the 17394th time. Anyways, Thanks For The Information.

not a masterpiece. We cannot throw such words around at any novel. The romance that takes up half the novel is completely rushed most of the time. Like sure half the novel is a masterpiece and the other half is a dumpster fire

But it is actually true, this novel have so much potential and if you ignored the romance it could've easily gotten in top ranks of the site, the problem with the romance isn't only because its excessive,objectively speaking the romance isn't that bad at first but it accumulates with time to become unbearable,sometimes it's just straight up physical from the beginning of the relationship nothing romantic in the slightest and the author uses the differences in humans and alien feelings as a plot device too much, added with the excessive s*x parts and how he becomes completely dependent on a partner and can't live without one, all adds up to the bad romance

I know everything other than the romance is amazing in my opinion. And you are right about the romance. I only felt weird about Martha and how that went. Again a little weird with Liiza but I eventually grew to accept the partnership until 100 chapters of s*x grew repetitive. Not even a week after the breakup he is with Delia. It gets incredibly toxic and he leaves her behind without saying anything. Then he goes to become a professor and low and behold Cora is there. He's talking bout "I don't want to be a d*ck or hurt her" like bro never puts boundaries down and flirts with everyone. Then complains that he feels "guilty". I wouldn't even mind the sh*tty romance if it didn't take up half the novel. There is no downtime for the romance. Things never progress organically. I would love to call it a masterpiece, but the romance brings it down a few pegs. Again tho, moments without romance is amazing. Just yesterday when I read the ahit about Delia, it made me super angry. Like relax Khan

Yeah you are right, if romance didn't take up half the novel and a very important component in the character devolopment and power scaling it would be fine cuz really who cares if the romance is sh*t when it is just mentioned every once in a while, I thought the thing between him and Martha unnatural but I was okay with it, half of the novels do it like that, then his relationship with Liiza grew on me with time but their break up made little to no sense to me, really if her species get very emotionaly attached she could have waited for him but author does what he wants, and then it just goes really annoying from here, a meaningless fling with Delia that make him feel guilty though she was fine and altruistic about it, then Cora relationship the author didn't actually bother to mention why he accepted the relationship in a way that make sense, I don't know if you got to millia 222 arc or no but God the romance there made me stop to take a very long break, still taking break till now

Yeah and the test he passed to get a tattoo on nitis to show "eternal love." Like the author does not know what love is. If the nitis were truly like that, then Liiza wouldnt have mind waiting multiple years. Especially with how intense the author made it seem. Ngl quite a disappointing novel compared to Birth of a demonic sword. But yeah I'm at the beginning of Millie 22 and I'm already about to give up on this novel and put it mid fast food tier. Like why does he care if he hurt Monica? Yall just met and for God's sake. Put some boundaries down. I simply don't know why ppl call it a masterpiece. If we call bad writing a masterpiece, sh*t writing would become worse and worse. Adhere to truth and call things for what they are. Did you ever get past millie 22? Does the author get better? Also what comments was the author reading. No way in hell he was receiving encouragement. Ehem sorry tho and thanks for the chats.

Np, no I didn't get past millia 222, stopped at ch 445 or sth, I just reached my limit bec of a jerk move he will do, though if you don't mind a little spoiler("" I know for sure that he is going to settle for one person from the end of millia arc till the recent chapters, she is probably the FL at this point"") that's the only thing that is stopping me from just outright dropping it, maybe if he finally stabilize emotionally the author can focus more on the story and maybe just maybe less romance and s*x everywhere

Honestly I didn't mind the spoiler. I probably think it's gonna be Jenna. Like their friends but they are hanging around each other naked and d*mn near cuddling naked as friends. Author is ridiculous ngl. We'll ima bear on reading this ok novel. If he truly settles down then the novel might get better. As long as the romance doesn't continue to.take up half the novel.

Oh well, just tell me your opinion when you reach ch 445 or finish millia arc, cuz I don't usually see a lot of people past half the novel so I'm interested what will your opinion be, if you don't mind ofc

I agree with everything they said, I think that the majority of readers abandon it for the same reason, the endless s*x, the caresses and all the romance (many times without apparent meaning) fill half of the chapters until it becomes tedious. I am in Millia's arc 222 chapter 356 I sincerely hope that this improves. Sorry if my English is not the best, greetings

Yeah though it's a shame cause the plot, power system, world building are all good, so I'm actually gonna try giving it another shot in the future hoping it gets better a little in the romance regard

Hell yeah I will let you know my opinion on this novel when I finish the millie arc. If I drop I will make a official review on this novel. I usually don't but this novels rating seems to be inflated. Also it's not letting me like your comments 😭

Greetings and yes alot of ppl abandon it for thst. And Ima hit you with a minor spoiler. He gets with Monica and it's f*ck*ng ugly. Like the romance was already bad it gets horrendously worse with her. Reason is another girl is introduced named Jenna and within 2 days of meeting her and Khan are sleeping naked. yatta yatta yatta. He doesn't tell Monica, Jenna asserts her place and it's a big f*ck*ng mess. Made me drop it

I just finished chapter 403 and I must say that it doesn't make any sense, it's a shame because the plot is good, the world construction is decent and the power level too, I'll keep reading to see how things progress, I still have hope, if things improve I'll update you

Yeah it really is a shame, I tried so hard liking it. And it had a lot going for it outside of the romance. Too bad the author made it the main focus. Let me know tho. Rn moved to Kill the Sun.

I started this novel because of Birth of the Demonic Sword, as it's written by the same author. That novel is really good especially because the MC knows his worth and isn't a simp. He would rather kill his crush than let her become an obstacle in his pursuit of power, lmao. The romance there is also well written, and the fml is likable without being cringe, unlike this novel. Also, I'll take your advice and give this another try after my exams. Thanks!

I’ve tried chrysalis before but quit very early might try again

you really should. I read the first 20 chapters and wasnt too into it. I came back again two years later and loved it.

I started reading, this does the romance slow down? like get off his d*ck😭😭

The romance does not slow down, maybe in some specific arcs but the romance is overall constant

the author is not good in romance

Def not.

Kinda valid but I mean more so he flirts with everything like a menace until chapter 600+, which is around ⅔ of the book rn, I'm on the late 700s rn and he seems to have gotten a bit better but not by much, I'll admit it's not a super accurate comparison thouhh

Ik Monica is end game; started stacking when they made the relationship public. I like Monica and all, i just though "When should i stop stacking? Hmm... When he meets Liiza is a good choice, I'm still extremely curious about her and the drama, omg the potential drama! Khan still loves her? She still loves Khan? Is she in a relationship? Mc parted with Liiza without any meaningful talks about the future, mc assumed she would follow her culture and start f*ck*ng everyone to move on, what if she didn't? She is waiting for him? She will pursue the mc romantically again? Will she feel betrayed? How Khan will feel? Will this end up in a thr**s*m*? How will Monica react? The two love interests will form a good and healthy friendship?" And so much more I NEED to know what happens, I'm not alone in this right? Am I the only one invested? I'm on the verge of brainwashing my friends to make them read the novel and talk with me abt it, i can't be the only being on earth so anxious about ths.

Fr sum gotta let me know when we see Liiza again cause I'm stacking RN and that's when I come back

what chapter does he meet monica?

Monica is mentioned 338 but he talks to her at 339 above

Lol maybe not this much, but curious yes. There was definitely potential and Khan has met his other ex. I don’t see why it wouldn’t eventually happen as he grows in power and reach in the alien sphere. Monica could become the target of future attacks for sure…but more in the future than sooner. Or a political incident involving Liiza’s people and Khans. I’m more of the opinion she moved on, not with multiple guys but maturing as a leader and person due to her situation. She might miss what they shared but that’s it imo. She’ll see Monica and be happy for him. The only way I see it happening is if Monica is out of the picture, and Liiza coming to fill that void m.
